Description: | Roman urn, found complete with cremation and soil still inside. The excavation of the urn revealed nothing but ashes, bone fragments and soil (carried out by Ian Caruana). The vessel itself seems to be a large jar of Black-Burnished 1 ware, possibly a local product made at Muncaster in Eskdale during the first half of the 2nd century AD. It is a sturdy vessel made from grey fabric with a large field of lattice decoration adorning the outside of its upper body.
